Ha...yeah, we definitely had a slump today.

Alot of close ones too!
Will be a fun season though.

25 points on 9 for 29, a kobe-like effort.

Never gets old.

Can you use the shot indicator in online games? Offline I know it works, online I don't remember.

Yes. Make sure u have shot stick timing on and also jumpshot feedback on.

I have the feedback on but never checked the shot stick timing. I know i ve had numerous greens on the feedback and brick city.

Loving the games, Im not getting the hang of the buttons and what not as of yet. And since I have zero knowledge of basketball plays im letting the computer call plays although sometimes I ll throw in a call here and there. Its a fun game, cant wait to score over 50!

Im 0-3 on the season, but Roy seems to be playing well, and is a bright spot.

Heres a question, if i have a lane, I hit r2 for an explosive first step, close to the hoop i hit up on the r stick and my player passes its 75% of the time. Ask bernie i must of done this 15 times in our game. Am i doing something wrong?

If the feedback is showing, then the shot stick timing is on. Cause the alternative to shot stick timing is something like Real FG%, which means it doesn't matter at all when you release to shoot a jumper, whether you make it or not is based on there real life percentages. So, the feedback isn't needed.

That's exactly what you should be doing to go up strong for a shot. I assume you have the default controller config.???

That's odd because that's exactly how it should be done. Maybe take it to freestyle mode as well and see if it works or not.

[buckeye76]

Thanks Shel, I am on the default setting for controller. I ll take a look, thanks

[Steamrollr22]

yea...i advise everyone to take off the right stick passing...i always used to pass when i was trying to shoot

Never even heard of right stick passing.

How can you pass with right stick if right stick is the shoot button? Weird.

The story of the Cavs season so far...

After an ass whoopin by Hugme and his Rockets...
Hugme49 (Kansas) 11:01 pm - I usually never shoot this good, not sure what the deal is.

Looks like the Cleveland curse is alive and well!
Still having fun though and that is all that matters.

....and I lose on a corner catch-and-shoot three off an inbound (with a center in his face) with 0.7 seconds left to lose.

Get used to it, dude is the best 3 point shooter in the league. He is the Magic/Duke/ and any other 3point firing squad in basketball history all rolled into 1.

had to be in this game ...was getting blocked if I even tried to go inside

on one play Oden litreally went up for a dunk/lay-up and had the ball just taken right out of his hands

And then he got injured.

Jack Keefer must have had a great training staff at Lawrence North. Ever since Oden left there he's been hurt.

every single time he falls to the ground, i'm expecting him not to get up and then for it to say he's out the rest of the season!!!

[Cnasty]

How many 3s has Oden made so far this year?

[Kegr8er]

Been hectic past few days in my household with a sick baby/work. But was able to squeeze in a quick scrimmage with dealer last night to try out my squad for the first time. Really happy with my team i must say! I know I made dealer cry last night as I hit my first two shots with Monta Ellis.

[DRiccio21]

Only 5 guys yet to play a game

[LetsGoPeay]

Someone needs to change Toro's name to Nessie.

[Cnasty]

Heat-Grizz about to tip off for the bored ones at work if you wanna watch.

Be prepared for 20+ Miami turnovers, about 30 shots from Paul, and 7 point quarters.

[Cnasty]

Im going to be playing the box and 1, 1-3-1, super duper mojo, and any other silly D to mix up that shooting display!
